The Kitchen Table
Here is our grown-up Gracie enjoying some scrambled eggs, voluntarily, for the first time in her life. It had to be documented. While I was doing that, I thought I might ask for some input on our kitchen table.
It's nothin fancy. Robby got it for free from a family that somehow ruined the finish and were getting rid of it. We've had it since our apartment days. Back then, the finish never bothered us. We didn't eat enough meals at the table to warrant any fuss about it.
It was thrust into the central part of our home when we moved here so she's had quite a bit of use over the past 6 months. Somewhere along the way, between the use and the cleaning, the table has developed some kind of sticky coating that cannot be removed.
I know nothing in the way of refinishing furniture except how to put new handles on an old dresser. Does anyone have an idea of the problem I'm dealin with and how I might remedy it? The tacky surface is only getting worse every time I clean it and I'm tired of picking off the left-over lint after it's been wiped down.
